Highlights from this month's print and digital editions:
Newsmark
A Russian Mi-8 military helicopter briefly entered Polish airspace near the Kaliningrad border, Sept. 23, Poland’s Operational Command said. The aircraft crossed about 1000 feet into Poland north of Braniewo at 11:08 a.m. and remained there for 42 seconds before returning toward the Russian exclave.
Poland scrambled to return home its citizens as tensions rose in the Middle East following the U.S. and Israeli attacks on Iran. Flights from UAE, Oman, Israel, Jordan, and Lebanon returned almost 3,000 Poles. The Polish government felt the immediate need to evacuate nationals working and living in Qatar, which was under ballistic missile and drone assault.
Poland will investigate convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein’s alleged ties to Russian intelligence and their potential implications for national security, Prime Minister Donald Tusk said.
When asked if the United States would discourage Germany, Poland, or Scandinavian countries from developing nuclear capabilities, Deputy Pentagon chief Elbridge Colby stated that the United State would “at least strongly oppose” it.
